Phragmipediums
| Viewing Page 1 of 2 |
Phragmipedium kovachii is one of the most exciting finds to enter the world of orchid horticulture in recent history. I'm pleased to announce that we are the first American nursery to be actively propagating and hybridizing this great new species from Peru.
This has been a project that we've been working on since May of 2003, when Alfredo Manrique, owner of Centro de Jardineria Manrique, Lima, Peru, was granted the first permit to collect the five plants that we are presently working with. Since that time, three companies have formed an exclusive partnership for the US, European and Asian markets to make this all happen, one from Peru and the other two from the United States.

Phragmipedium Betheva
Small, compact growing plants resembling Phrag. Grande, but at a fraction of the size. Good growers producing several growths quite easily. Multiple growth plants.

Phragmipedium Eumelia Arias
The best way to explain what this hybrid looks like is p. schlimii on steroids ... big, round pink flowers. BS View more images here
Phragmipedium kovachii
Very large flowers ranging in size from 6" to over 9" in some cases. These are not as difficult to grow as you might think, however they are very slow to get going, you just need some patience. View more images here
Phragmipedium La Vingtaine
Phragmipedium Mem. Alicia Gadea de Solano
Inquire for size/s and more description.
Phragmipedium Memoria Garren Weaver
Great combination of these two species, producing nice compact plants with long petals. Some of these are previously bloomed plants and they are limited in supply.

Phragmipedium QF Walter Scheeren
Big, beautiful flowers ... similar to Phrag. Court Jester, but with some producing flowers that have slightly darker pouches, and some that will be missing their staminodes. One of the parents of P. Mem. Julius Dixiler is Phrag. humboldtii var. exstamimodium, which has darker flowers that are missing their staminodes, which does come through on many of its hybrids.
